We offer two shipping options through FedEx:
- Fed Ex Ground (Standard Shipping):
This is our default option and follows standard delivery times based on your location—typically between 1–5 business days after your order is processed. - Fed Ex Expedited Shipping: If you choose expedited shipping at checkout, your order will still follow our normal processing time (1–3 business days, or up to 6 during high-volume periods). Once shipped, your order will arrive faster—typically within 1–2 business days, depending on your location.
Important: FedEx does not deliver on weekends, so if your expedited order ships on a Friday, it will arrive the following Monday (or the next business day if Monday is a holiday).
Unfortunately, we cannot ship to P.O. Boxes at this time. Please use a residential or business address.
We offer Route Package Protection on all of our orders as an optional additional protection method to shipments. To learn more about Route, visit homeworx.shop/pages/route-protection
